So many ghosts, and forms of fright,
Have started from their graves to-night,
They have driven sleep from mine eyes away;
I will go down to the chapel and pray.

There needs no ghost, my lord, come from the grave
To tell us this.

Now it is the time of night
That the graves, all gaping wide,
Every one lets forth his sprite,
In the churchway paths to glide.

Where entity and quiddity,
The ghosts of defunct bodies, fly.

A mote it is to trouble the mind's eye.
In the most high and palmy state of Rome,
A little ere the mightiest Julius fell,
The graves stood tenantless, and the sheeted dead
Did squeak and gibber in the Roman streets;
As stars with trains of fire and dews of blood,
Disasters in the sun; and the moist star
Upon whose influence Neptune's empire stands
Was sick almost to doomsday with eclipse.

Of calling shapes, and beck'ning shadows dire,
And airy tongues that syllable men's names.

And airy tongues that syllable men's names.

For spirits when they please
Can either sex assume, or both.

Great Pompey's shade complains that we are slow,
And Scipio's ghost walks unavenged amongst us!
